Breaking news: Lindsay Graham died at the age of 71, shortly after his death, Grinder filed for bankruptcy

You only get one life. Do as much good for others as you can while you still have the chance.

The NYT obituary of Lindsey Graham makes no mention of his effort to overturn the 2020 election by calling Georgia’s secretary of state to intimidate him into manufacturing votes for Trump. The Times, like all news media, is GOP propaganda erasing Republicans’ history as election deniers

And now he is in John Bunyan's Hell.

There will be a lot of conspiracies, but it may have just been Chick-Fil-A.

He died doing what he loved: toadying to a more successful political figure so that we could bomb people.

Reminder: you are allowed to talk shit about the dead when they’re being lamented and eulogized by their buddy the war criminal nazi sociopath.

wait Lindsey Graham just died?! what the fuck?! may he be remembered accurately: as an awful warmonger who deliberately chose to empower the worst people in the world despite knowing better

Lindsay Graham is perhaps more responsible than any institutional Republican for normalizing Trump.

Lindsey Graham is going to go down in history as a Trump sucking cunt He sold out his fucking soul and all he has to show for it now is a legacy that will not be kind to him Your grave will forever be another urinal and this might as well be your headstone:

KEY: all three witnesses are being detained apart, and their story is consistent. They say that there were agents along the side of the vehicle but none in front. When you add the videos showing a lack of evidence of damage to the front despite ICE's ramming claim, ICE's story is falling apart.

SHOCK NYT REPORT: DHS now admits the man ICE killed in Houston wasn't even their target. Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a 35-year U.S. resident, was just driving to work when agents — with no body cameras — shot him dead searching for two other men who weren't even in the van. Gift link in reply.

We cannot let them get away with pretending a sitting US Senator is alive when he’s not.

This is the voter fraud they warned us about

Republicans love to point fingers — but when it came to Trump, Roy Moore, and Matt Gaetz, they defended the indefensible. Don’t pretend your side is somehow above it. Spare me the whataboutism. Call it what it is. The GOP protected their abusers.

I spoke to my old friend Mitch McConnell this morning, the senior Senator from Kentucky. He's still recovering in the hospital. We talked for just shy of 20 minutes. And all that time he insisted he was a ghost, already dead but trapped in semi-corporeal form by Pure Evil. I told him Get Well Sir.

I just moved a refrigerator into a fifth-floor walkup with Mitch McConnell. At one point, he held the whole thing up with just one hand. It was a little intimidating how healthy and strong and virile he is.

I just played pickleball with my old friend Mitch McConnell, the senior Senator from Kentucky. The game lasted just shy of 20 minutes, after which time we enjoyed a lovely lunch at his southern mansion prepared by descendants of slaves he personally selected and purchased himself centuries ago.

there is a cohort of men who resent the responsibilities and obligations of adulthood — of the fact that you owe things to other people. it is a fundamentally childish impulse that they have reconfigured as the height of masculinity, and i think it informs the parasocial attraction to platner.

NEWS: NATO just picked Sweden's Saab over Boeing for its new $4.5B early warning fleet — and the snub landed the same day Trump touched down in Türkiye for the NATO summit. Awkward.

Democrats, this election is a referendum on Trump - keep it there. This isn’t complicated.

In case it wasn’t clear, I think there are a lot of mistakes and beliefs that people can change and — with effort and good faith — try to make right. Rape is not one of those. You cannot rehabilitate a rapist. There is no room for rapists in our movement.

The Belgian soccer team trolled Donald Trump by mimicking his “jerk-off” dance.

So the person vouching that Mitch is alive and lucid is the well-known truth teller Scott Jennings who also wants his seat.

NEW: Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton appears to have used an address where he did not live while voting in six elections in the past two years — despite warning voters that “it is illegal to misrepresent your residence on election records.” with @texastribune.org

I don’t understand how people can run for office knowing they have insane baggage and/or crimes. Like I spent the entire campaign expecting AIPAC to somehow dig up my middle school livejournal fanfic account. I prepared my family for it. I’m still amazed it didn’t happen.

Iran War disaster. Knicks game loss. Hail at Mt. Rushmore on July 3. Sandstorm in DC on July 4. 4-1 World Cup loss. Trump is like a traveling pestilence.

“After it ended, the Belgian team’s social media account had a message to the U.S. on Twitter: “Overturn this.” Perfect. #WellPlayed #Belgium

Two observations from the World Cup; Fifa should be disbanded USA should never be allowed to host it again

😎🌵🪴 a long read, but worth the time

I guarantee there’s another large man in Maine that wears flannel that can run for senate and not be Graham Platner you just have to believe in the world of possibilities

Did you see this picture? A black woman surrounded by members of the racist group called “Patriot front” on a metro train, completely calm amidst their cowardice. Her silence speaks louder than the racist scum, she’s refusing to be intimidated…the quiet resilience that challenges fear more anything

i will not forget the men who downplayed the earlier allegations of abuse against platner and said accepting them was just the price we had to pay to gain control of the senate. i hope they feel like fucking assholes.

shout out to the guy who spent an afternoon on here screaming at me for thinking the tattoo was bad

I have edited a lot of sexual-assault-accusation articles, and this one easily clears every veracity check: contemporaneous emails with her therapist, a boyfriend who knew, a woman she warned—all before Platner ran for office. Good on Politico for nailing it, and on Jenny Racicot for speaking up.

This is fucking hilarious considering Meta AI's history soliciting kids for sex.

Is it possible for Trump, Vance & Hegseth to address troops without talking about partisan politics or Democrats? Are they capable of talking about military subjects or just talking about America, their missions or service? Is their only purpose indoctrinating a captive audience?

And just like that, Republicans have no problem with a sitting president making billions in office on crypto scams, from foreign governments and oligarchs, and industries directly impacted by his orders, policies and regulations.

“The Trump family’s earnings, experts said, have moved him into an echelon of enrichment more associated with strongmen in Russia and Turkey” {gift link} www.nytimes.com/2026/07/02/w...

For America's 250th, I read Frederick Douglass’ speech, “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” on the House floor—for the first time in history. His speech endures as a mirror & mandate for us all—to confront our inequities while fighting for an America as good as its promise.

🔥 @jessicatarlov.bsky.social: “I assume you also want to criticize Greg Abbott— Texas recommends people set the thermostat to 78 degrees when it gets hot too… and they had problems with their grid. Remember when Ted Cruz fled to Cancun?”

The Founders didn't risk the gallows because they hated America. They risked everything because they loved it enough to confront tyranny. Patriotism isn't pretending everything is fine. It's defending the republic when it isn't. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

The depth of corruption is so staggering that it feels unreal. But it is. Trump “rug pulled” hundreds of millions from his fans through his crypto, and now doesn’t even pretend otherwise. We cannot allow this to feel normal. Watch the full video (link) youtu.be/ISsdYxyd33s?...

BREAKING on MS NOW: Dozens of intel officials have started receiving notice of their terminations under Trump's unqualified acting DNI, Bill Pulte. The individuals are officials "who they believe are deep state" and whom leadership claims have not provided complete pictures of available intel.

Breaking: Per MSNOW’s Vaughn Hillyard, acting DNI Bill Pulte is now firing dozens of intelligence officials at agencies beyond his own office as part of removing the “deep state.” Reportedly, the officials may have refused to provide him requested intel.
